Welfare Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 December 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Welfare Reform Bill.
I assure the House that where people cannot handle monthly budgeting, we will have arrangements to help them. However, I ask noble Lords not to tie my hands on this. This can make a major difference to poor people by creating banking and budgeting products that will help their lives. Tying our hands on this, particularly mine, will not help. Therefore, I ask noble Lords not to vote against this.
